I will preface this by saying that I have not read any of the other posts yet.

My thoughts on the forum are to leave it like it is. Granted there are popular threads that can get pushed off the first page, and take some time to find. But, on other discussion forums I have seen where a reply bumps a topic to the top, if someone asks a question and does not get a response, that question can possibly be pushed onto page three in a matter of minutes by a few questions that get lots of responses. Then, the originator (or someone else) has to bump it to get it back to page one. Currently, a new post will stay on the first page for several hours, if not all day. The threads stay in the order which they were posted with a date/time stamp, so if you know what date a post originated, it is not hard to find.

The other thing that I like here is that you can reply to a response and the reply is seen immediately below the response it is to rather than at the end of the thread. To me it takes longer to read the box with the original response showing in each and every reply to it. Personally, I find the other type of forum more confusing to read and use than this one. Just my opinion…
